R.T. Alderman and Dr. George Stanley schools had their first practice lockdown of the year this morning, at 10:00AM (yes, even with the snow falling..) Our School Resource Officer, Constable Payne, and four additional School Resource Officers, helped to unlock doors and to provide feedback, so that we can make our school a safe place. For the most part, our students were fantastic; sitting in their designated 'green drop' zone, remaining calm and quiet. We realize that this can be a stressful practice, but we want to make sure that the students take it very seriously as well. We have also added a sign to our front doors, letting visitors know that they should not be entering the building when they hear the constant ringing of the bell. Be sure to debrief with your children, asking them if they have any questions. Sleep tight - Ms. Lewis.
